PUBLIC service tutors at Deeside College attended an event day at Cheshire Constabulary headquarters.

The itinerary, organised by the force, allowed the students to experience many aspects of police life.

Gwyn Jones, one of the tutors accompanying the students, said: “The day gave students the chance to experience areas of working for the police service that they would not normally get to experience.”

The police’s dog training section demonstrated its skills, conducting a mock drugs search, and students were taken on tours of the operational call management unit and new £11m public order tactical training and firearms training units.

Jason Ferguson, a public services tutor at Deeside College who attended the event, said: “Students that attended the day fully enjoyed it and are now keen to pursue employment opportunities further within the police service.”
